Our World/outdoor wednesday/ Save our world: Recycling

Many of you who read my posts know that I am passionate about recycling, reuse and zero waste. Whilst traveling from Miri to Brunei, my cousin Calvin Kong Chak Wan pointed out this big heap of scrap metal. I fully approve.

He also told me this funny story. The kids of one Miri school were told to bring one bottle of old cooking oil to be recycled. One child's parents didn't cook at home, and the Grandpa went and bought a new bottle of cooking oil for the child.

While the message of recycling is good, it should be explained carefully so that it won't be futile like in this case, where the exercise gets negative results.
